Box and Bundle
The GTX box is a pretty epic affair. This one makes do without the usual XFX Dog character, but instead has a mystical air with swirling green light and a smashed glass effect underneath a large, impacted GTX logo. Underneath this are large "280" and "GeForce" logos; XFX packing as many buzz words onto the front as they can.

On the back there's a screenshot from "They" a 2009 slated FPS title showing off some graphical effects - and interestingly, an in-game nVidia gun - alongside some feature lists.

Along with the card you get a nice little bundle of bits: all the usual cables and converters along with the now standard, "Gaming: Do not Disturb" door hanger. However, those purchasing this card will also get a full licenced copy of Assassins Creed as well (not pictured).
